BISE Lahore Matric Result 2026 – Check by Roll Number, Name, SMS & Gazette
The BISE Lahore Matric Result 2026 will be announced on 6 August 2026 at 10:00 AM. Lahore is the largest examination board in Pakistan — over two and a half lakh students appeared in its matric exams last year alone — which also makes its result morning the heaviest traffic event of the academic calendar. Students from Lahore, Kasur, Sheikhupura, and Nankana Sahib will all get their SSC Part 2 marks at the same moment.
The date is not Lahore’s alone. The Punjab Boards Committee of Chairpersons (PBCC) fixes one schedule for all nine boards, so the instant Lahore’s result goes live, Gujranwala, Faisalabad, Multan, and the rest go live too, down to the minute.

How to Check BISE Lahore Matric Result 2026
There are three working ways to check the Lahore Board matric result: the roll number search on the official website, the SMS service on code 800291, and the name-wise search. On a normal day the website wins easily — but result morning on Pakistan’s biggest board is not a normal day, which is why knowing all three matters. Here is each one, properly explained.
By Roll Number — The Primary Method
Your roll number is tied to your record alone, making this the cleanest and most accurate route. Keep your slip in hand:
- Open the official Lahore Board website, biselahore.com
- Go to the Results section and select SSC Part 2, Annual 2026
- Enter your roll number exactly as printed on the slip
- Submit — your complete subject-wise result card loads on screen
Now the honest part. With more than 2.5 lakh candidates plus their families checking simultaneously, the first hour after 10:00 AM is brutal on the board’s servers. Pages crawl, time out, and half-load. Refreshing a hundred times changes nothing — wait ten minutes, or go straight to SMS, which exists for exactly this hour.
By SMS — Code 800291
The SMS service needs no internet, runs on any handset, and skips the website rush entirely:
- Open a new text message
- Type only your roll number — nothing else
- Send it to 800291
- Your marks come back as a reply SMS within a few minutes
Standard SMS charges apply. On a board this size the SMS gateway also gets congested at peak; if no reply arrives in ten minutes, pause before resending rather than stacking messages in the queue.
By Name — If the Roll Number Slip Is Lost
Misplaced slips surface every result day, and the name-wise search covers it. On biselahore.com, open the Results section and choose Search by Name for Matric 2026. Enter your full registered name — and on a board with lakhs of candidates, duplicate names are guaranteed, so confirm your entry through your father’s name and school. This search typically activates an hour or two after the announcement, once the full database is uploaded.
The Gazette — Every Candidate in One Document
The gazette is the board’s official master register: every roll number, every grade, every institution, in one file. For a board of Lahore’s scale it is a massive document, and schools depend on it to process whole classes at once. Download the Matric 2026 gazette from the official site after the announcement, open the PDF, press Ctrl+F, and type your roll number to jump directly to your row. Printed copies appear at the board office within days.
BISE Lahore Matric Result 2025 — The Numbers Behind Last Year
Scale is the story with this board. In 2025, 254,012 students appeared in Lahore’s matric exams and 165,912 passed, putting the pass percentage at 65.32%. For comparison, neighboring Gujranwala posted 70.58% the same year — Lahore’s checking has a reputation, and the numbers back it up.
The 2025 merit list was historic for one name:
| Position | Name | Marks (out of 1200) |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Haram Fatima | 1193 |
| 2nd | Noor-ul-Huda & Haji Abu Zar Tanveer (shared) | 1188 |
| 3rd | Muhammad Ali | 1187 |
Haram Fatima’s 1193 was not just Lahore’s top score — it was the highest matric score in all of Punjab in 2025, and the Chief Minister personally congratulated her on the overall first position. Haji Abu Zar Tanveer, who shared second, came from Nankana Sahib — another reminder that this board’s merit reaches well beyond Lahore city.
Two more details from 2025 worth knowing. Eight of Lahore’s top ten position holders came from private schools, but government schools posted their own quiet win: their pass rate jumped from 61.2% to 68.4% in a single year. And Lahore became the first board to put QR codes on result documents for verification — a transparency step other boards are now copying.
Result Date Pattern — How We Got to 6 August
The Punjab matric result has moved later each year: all nine boards announced on 9 July in 2024, then 24 July in 2025, and now 6 August for 2026, following later exam schedules. Position holders are honored a day early, on 5 August, at the board’s traditional ceremony — when topper names hit the news that evening, the result is confirmed for the next morning.
| Year | Result Date | Lahore Pass % |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 9 July | — |
| 2025 | 24 July | 65.32% |
| 2026 | 6 August (confirmed) | awaited |
Passing Marks 2026 — 33% Is the Correct Figure, Not 40%
For the matric batch of 2026, you needed 33% in each subject to pass — not 40%. This deserves a clear explanation because the wrong figure is everywhere.
The IBCC’s new national grading policy does raise passing marks to 40%, but it is being implemented in phases starting from 2026 with 9th and 11th class students, completing by 2028 — and Punjab had not even notified the policy provincially when the 2026 annual exams approached. The current 10th class batch began matric under the old framework, so their result follows the existing 33% criteria, with theory and practical assessed separately in science subjects. Today’s 9th class batch will be the first to face the 40% bar at matric level, in 2027.
Grading System — Lahore Board Matric
| Grade | Percentage | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 80% and above | Exceptional |
| A | 70% – 79% | Excellent |
| B | 60% – 69% | Very Good |
| C | 50% – 59% | Good |
| D | 40% – 49% | Fair |
| E | 33% – 39% | Satisfactory (Pass) |
Total marks for matric (Part 1 + Part 2 combined) are 1200 under the current scheme — Haram Fatima’s 1193 last year left only seven marks on the table.
About BISE Lahore — Pakistan’s First Board
The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Lahore was established in 1954, making it the first BISE in Pakistan — every other board in Punjab was eventually carved out of its original jurisdiction. Today it examines students across four districts: Lahore, Kasur, Sheikhupura, and Nankana Sahib.
Its scale shapes everything around it. With roughly a quarter million matric candidates each year, Lahore’s pass percentage moves provincial averages, its toppers usually lead Punjab’s overall merit, and its administrative decisions — like the QR-code verification introduced in 2025 — tend to become the template for the other eight boards.
Rechecking and Supplementary Exams
If a subject’s marks look wrong, apply for rechecking within 15 days of the result through the official website: select the paper, pay the per-subject fee, and submit before the cutoff. Know what rechecking covers — totaling errors, unmarked questions, clerical mistakes — and what it does not: re-evaluation of your answers.
Came up short in a subject or two? The supplementary (second annual) exam in October–November gives you a fresh attempt within the same year, with your passed subjects carried forward. Around 88,000 Lahore candidates did not clear the 2025 annual exam — supplementary is a well-worn road, not a rare one. The forms open on the board site within weeks of the result; missing the window means waiting a full year, so mark it.
After the Result — Lahore’s Admission Rush
Save your result card the day it appears, because Lahore’s college admission season is the most competitive in Pakistan. Government College, Kinnaird, FC College, Punjab Group, and dozens of others open first-year admissions within days of the result, and merit lists for Pre-Medical and Pre-Engineering at the top institutions close at percentages that surprise students every year.
Choose your stream where your marks and your genuine interest overlap — Pre-Medical, Pre-Engineering, ICS, Commerce, and Arts each lead somewhere different, and in a city with this many options, picking by crowd instead of fit is the most common mistake.

Final Words
A quarter million students will check this board’s result on the morning of 6 August, and the range of what those screens will show is enormous — last year it ran from a 1193 that led all of Punjab to the 88,000 candidates who headed for supplementary exams. Both groups walked into the same exam halls. Whatever your number turns out to be, it is a checkpoint, not a verdict: the toppers still have to earn their next stage, and the supplementary route exists because the system expects people to need it. Check through an official channel, save your card, and let your next move — not this one morning — define the year.
